< Psalms 127 >
1 song [the] step to/for Solomon if: until LORD not to build house: home vanity: vain to toil to build him in/on/with him if: until LORD not to keep: guard city vanity: vain to watch to keep: guard
A Song of Ascents; of Solomon. Except Jehovah build the house, They labor in vain that build it: Except Jehovah keep the city, The watchman waketh but in vain.
2 vanity: vain to/for you to rise to arise: rise to delay to dwell to eat food: bread [the] toil so to give: give to/for beloved his sleep
It is vain for you to rise up early, To take rest late, To eat the bread of toil; [For] so he giveth unto his beloved sleep.
3 behold inheritance LORD son: child wages fruit [the] belly: womb
Lo, children are a heritage of Jehovah; [And] the fruit of the womb is [his] reward.
4 like/as arrow in/on/with hand mighty man so son: child [the] youth
As arrows in the hand of a mighty man, So are the children of youth.
5 blessed [the] great man which to fill [obj] quiver his from them not be ashamed for to speak: speak with enemy in/on/with gate
Happy is the man that hath his quiver full of them: They shall not be put to shame, When they speak with their enemies in the gate.
